Thanks for the comments. The Saab Doc her in KC retired so that sucks for me getting reasonable work done and access to old Saab parts locally. The former dealer is still here and does very good work but is fairly expensive. People all over the country can do things (a transmission rebuild here, a fender there) but its all non-local. I can't take out a transmission myself to ship to someone. Plus I can't really get a body shop who wants to do the work. Mile Hi in Denver said they worked on an old 900 a bit ago fixing rust and don't want to ever do another one! Other local shops have never worked on an old 900 and are not interested. That leaves specialty resto shops and the $$ there are nuts even if you could get someone to do it. If I could find someone to do the whole thing (head gasket, trans rebuild, rust repair) then that might be an option. But so far I have not found that anywhere. If you know of someone like that, let me know. Better yet, buy it yourself and restore it :-) Thanks
